Project 365: Already a failure?

So to the three of you that read this blog and my husband, Project 365 has already been a failure...or has it?

Granted, I didn't post a picture and blog yesterday, but I did take a picture.  I also took a picture today, so it's only a half failure : )

There's really no excuse for not posting yesterday, so I won't try to come up with one.  Instead, let's get started:

Day 1


This is what the house has been looking like for the past 3-4 weeks.  Giant tree.  GIANT.  I asked the husband and daughter to get a nice modest tree.  We've been buying baby trees the last few years, so I knew they wanted a tall tree.  I never expected this giant tree.  It was so full.  I was told, it was because we had a decent year and we should go all out.  What the husband and daughter failed to realize was that we have a 1 year old in the house, who like to grab ornaments.  You can kind of see it in this picture, but the tree is only decorated from the middle on up.  There are no ornaments on the bottom half of the tree and barely any lights.  So, we have this giant tree and can't even use it to its fullest.

A couple of things, in case you were wondering:  Husband is green, I'm red, daughter is purple, son is blue.  Also, I think World's Wildest Police Chases was on TV.

Now, onto today, Day 2:



Just like that, it's all gone.  It was my day to sleep in and when I woke up it was all gone.  It's not like I woke up at noon, I woke up at 9AM.  It was all put away.  I was kind of sad it was gone, but then I was so delighted!  No more baby eating pine needles, no more squeezing by to get to part of the couch, no more 1/4 of my living room gone.  And the best part?  I didn't have to deal with putting any of it away!

So now, I will put forth a better effort on Project 365.

Know this, if I don't post everyday, I will be taking pictures!
